and now i have my squares at hand when ever i need them please remeber to always be safe useing power tools hope you enjoy and if i have missed anyth...

i was always misplacing my squares so i decided i wanted a dedicated place for them but always at hand while at my bench
so i came up with this idea
why not use some wasted space********PLEASE ALWAYS USE YOUR SAFTEY EQUIPMENT **********

I've been drawing up plans for a work bench that folds up against the garage wall when not in use. I have a garage barely big enough for my little car, and I'm always looking for ways to save space. This will be a perfect addition to my current design. Thanks for sharing!

thank you for the replys and comments and thank you lewisb42 for pointing that about the nails or screws i had forgotten that very important part mh76dk the weight of the squares are very minimal so i dont think they will get bent but one could always add a second 2x4 behind to add extra support if so desired thanks again for the repleys and i am still new to the instuctable site and posting

For safety, before cutting the slits check that no nails or screws used in the workbench construction will be in the way of your cut. (Your bench appears to have similar construction to mine, meaning screws holding the top to the skirt would potentially cross the cut lines.) The best case is you end up damaging your saw blade; the worst case is dangerous kickback.

This is a very common way to store tools you need handy. In older workshop tables you can find these lines in the top surface, along with holes for your hammer and other such tools (your horisontal side-insert puts a little twist on it and makes it nicer looking for a more varied workshop - I do have to wonder if it can end up bending the squares).

I hope that did not come out as negative. These tricks are often forgotten over time and it is great to see them re-invented/re-discovered.
